About

This 2CD set presents a selection of the most famous, best‐loved organ works by Johann Sebastian Bach, ranging from intimate Choralvorspiele, ingenious fugues, a sparkling Concerto transcription to the monumental Toccata & Fugue in D minor and the towering Passacaglia in C minor.

Award‐winning organist, harpsichordist, conductor and scholar Stefano Molardi is a peerless interpreter, having complete the recording of Bach’s Organ Music for Brilliant Classics (BC 95105). The instruments heard on this album date from Bach’s time (Silbermann, Trost, Thielemann, ildebrandt) therefore bringing us as close as possible to the sound world of the great Leipzig Cantor and allowing us to hear them as he might have done himself.

Booklet contains newly written liner notes.
